LED Commercial Track Lighting

What is Track Lighting?

Commercial track lighting provides an energy-saving and convenient way to integrate LED ceiling lights into any space. Track lights have strong adaptability and versatility, can be installed in a variety of different environments, and are particularly popular in commercial and retail spaces.

The track lighting system has two main functions. The track itself can be installed on the ceiling, wall, suspension or recess and LED track lights, which are installed along the length of the track.

These LED ceiling lights can be installed anywhere on the track and are fully adjustable. All system components are fixed in a single electrical system, thereby eliminating the need for structural modification and providing simple modification options.

How Do Track Lights Work?

Commercial track lighting systems can be suspended or surface mounted, and then use end feed or live end power supply. This final feed will then be connected to your power source.

There are several types of tracks, single-loop and triple loop. With a single-circuit track system, you can only use one switch to turn on and off the LED ceiling light, while with a three-circuit, you can control the lights with three switches. Then, your track light will be inserted into the track at any position along the length and can be moved as needed. On the three circuit track lights, the light has a switch, so you can choose which circuit you want to work on. It is important to note that not all track lights have the same track adapter, so please check if it is suitable for your commercial track lighting system.

Track Lighting or Recessed Lighting?

Commercial track lighting and recessed lighting have a lot in common, and both can be used for spotlights and full lighting, but there are some functions that can distinguish the two. Recessed lighting is installed on the ceiling. These hidden fixtures are integrated into the ceiling and take up less visual space, but usually require structural transformation during installation.

However, the track lighting is installed directly on the ceiling or wall surface, allowing minimally invasive installation procedures. Therefore, compared with track lighting, recessed lighting is usually a more expensive LED ceiling light to install.

Recessed lighting is usually ideal for more sophisticated solutions. Hidden lamps blend seamlessly with the ceiling surface. For spaces with low ceilings, recessed lighting is usually the best choice, because track lighting is projected downward into the ceiling space.

The recessed lighting is a permanent luminaire, and the track lighting can rotate 360 degrees. The spotlight can be easily adjusted according to requirements, which enhances versatility and can illuminate any area.

What Are the Advantages of Track Lighting?

As an effective LED ceiling lamp solution, LED track lighting has many positive points, including ease of installation, especially as a refurbishment option with minimal damage, which has been involved. It also provides the flexibility to highlight a specific area or product, which is a priority when used in a retail environment because you can find the direction light quickly and easily.

Another advantage is that it can provide a variety of track light styles and colors suitable for your retail environment. You can choose commercial track lights from modern to industrial designs.

We provide a 3-loop LED track system that allows you to divide the ceiling lighting into multiple areas. Compared with other lamps, the initial cost may be higher depending on the length of the track, the style, and the number of spotlights, but the use of energy-efficient LED lighting will ensure lower daily costs.

What Are the Different Types of Track Lighting?

If the design is correct and the most suitable type of track lighting equipment is selected, track lighting can indeed highlight the best features of any retail or commercial space. The following options are available:

Surface mounted track lighting

When we talk about LED surface track lighting, it means that the track has been installed and screwed directly to the ceiling. The installation is simple, and the track can be installed wherever needed, which is a minimally invasive installation process. The track has different lengths but can be cut according to your size. For longer LED surface mount lights, you can join the track by using couplers and linking them together.

Surface-mounted track lighting is not limited to the ceiling, but can also be installed vertically or horizontally on the wall. This is an excellent choice for illuminating objects at different angles.

Suspended track lighting

Suspended track lighting is very popular in high-ceiling retail and commercial spaces, and the lighting can be lowered closer to the product or area that needs to be illuminated. This can be achieved by using a suspension wire kit or a fixed screw kit. This installation method also provides an attractive industrial appearance to space. It can also be cut and installed to have any length, rectangle, square, or shape required.

Embedded track lighting

Embedded track lighting is installed on the ceiling, and the track itself is embedded, thus reducing the visual impact. Generally, the installation cost is higher than the surface mount option. However, by seamlessly blending the installation with the ceiling surface, it is ideal for achieving more subtle solutions. For spaces with low ceilings, hidden track lighting is usually the best choice.

Where can track lighting be used?

The LED track lighting system provides ideal ceiling lighting solutions for various enterprises and public places. From commercial and office environments to retail stores and art galleries. Track lighting can be configured for practical purposes, or it can be used to create architectural and environmental effects.

Accent track lighting is often used to highlight specific functions, products or areas. With directional spotlights, accent lighting can make almost anything stand out.

Another popular method of using track lighting is to illuminate the walls. This is the so-called wall washer, in which the light source is placed further away from the wall surface to provide even light to "wash" the wall or building. This gives the wall texture a flat appearance.

Wall predation uses lighting techniques similar to wall cleaning, but the location of the lamps must be very close to the wall (no more than 12 inches apart) to highlight the wall texture.
